How come you just didn't get a Dryel system? Wrinkle-free, in-house dry clean system!

I've never seen that before! I would think dryers are pretty hard on dress clothes though.

None of this will matter if I just get a GF lol. Problem solved.

I'm experiencing the same issues. I don't mind paying but I hate that it is destroying my dress shirts! Where did you end up purchasing that iron and how much?

[sputnik]

Why not just get your shirts laundered instead of dry cleaned?

Not really a purchase so much as an "in-lieu-of-paying-cash-money-for-computer-repair-services," one of these is headed my way from BC (NCIX). These are widely regarded (and reviewed) as the single best air cooler ever designed. Time to do some more serious overclocking Will be able to push to 4 GHz on my 2600k without this thing even looking at me strangely XD

Noctua NH-D14

I have the U12. Noctua makes awesome coolers, just wish it worked from the fan header instead of molex so I could control it with my overclock/temp software. Very quiet though and temps are always super low even under load.

for the z31

^ optical illusion, all 6 wheels appear to be different widths.


Really nice wheels though, as much as people hate on them, they're still one of my favorite designs. Should look awesome on a Z31.

Love the sa3's what sizes are they? Jealous of the focuses too.

Got it from Amazon.ca and free 1-2 day shipping (ordered Friday, arrived Monday).

It was on sale and all the reviews I could find were positive. I also have a Consumer Reports log-in and it was one of the highest rated irons. I'm sure I did way too much research considering how minor of a purchase this is lol, but at any rate:

http://www.amazon.ca/Rowenta-DW5080U...9586958&sr=8-1

Probably overkill for anything I do, but for only $80 what the hell (locally they are around $130).

I finally got a washing machine that doesn't destroy my clothes, so I can wash my dress shirts on a "hand wash" cycle now, so if I iron them myself, they won't wear out nearly as fast. I was starting to notice the toll dry cleaning takes on my dress clothes.

Which washing machine did you get?

Did quite a bit of research and picked up this pair:

LG WM2250CW and the matching dryer DLE2250W.

Has every feature except the steam stuff I'd never use. Consumer reports, which I don't normally use, rated it very high - not sure how else you test a washing machine other than using it a bunch, so their results seemed trustworthy. The motor has a 10 year warranty too.

These things are awesome. They wash way better than my old agitator washer and the dryer is larger and way more efficient. You know that dirt that seems to always be embeded in socks (at least mine lol), it got it out - blew my mind.

It has hand wash cycles too, so you can pretty well wash anything in it, even the stuff you're not supposed to put in a washer.

Where are you ordering those from? and is it cheaper than in store?

From the sodastream website, they ship out of Winnipeg.

The store doesn't have all those flavours. Price is the same as in store.

[Unknown303]

I should have thought about checking the site..

Dryel works on low-heat (permanent press or whatever) as well. Just takes longer.

Are they silk? Usually my cotton dress shirts just goes in the wash then I hit it in the dryer on low heat, then hang right after it's done.
